For any pencil of conics or higher-dimensional quadrics over ℚ, with all degenerate fibres defined over ℚ, we show that the Brauer–Manin obstruction controls weak approximation. The proof is based on the Hasse principle and weak approximation for some special intersections of quadrics over ℚ, which is a consequence of recent advances in additive combinatorics.
